Changing the Ratio is a cross disciplinary networking event for industry professionals celebrating women, trans and/or nonbinary filmmakers during awards season. Our focus is to shine a light on some of the amazing projects and their creators from this year as we come together for a night of industry conversation and networking with professional filmmakers, crew, and influential industry decision-makers.
With the current underrepresentation of women and non-binary creatives across technical and craft categories – from directors to composers, cinematographers, VFX and editors – our collective goal with this event is to carve out and occupy shared space. As film award season is underway, this event will highlight members across our organizations who have the potential to be nominated and considered for awards.
Film Fatales recently launched the Parity Pipeilne, a results-driven initiative that fights inequities in the film industry by connecting underrepresented filmmakers directly with key decision-makers seeking to hire equitably and program inclusively.
ReFrame is getting ready to release its 2026 Oscar Voter Guide. As part of WIF’s mission to advocate for change, the Voter Guide aims to amplify the work of deserving women, trans, and nonbinary folk, serving as a go-to resource for industry voters who are conscious of gender bias and desire equity in the industry.
